Thanks for this!

Aside fromt the CLA issue, a few questions:

• Could you elaborate how this differs for the highlighting part from https://github.com/bajrangCoder/zed-laravel-blade? It seems that this already adds support for both highlighting as well as some LSPs.
• I see that this adds the laravel language server. Would that perhaps be something that we could add to the other extension too instead?

Thanks!

Thanks for the review!

You're right that zed-laravel-blade already covers Blade highlighting with the same tree-sitter grammars.
The key additions in this extension are:

1. Laravel Language Server (laravel-ls) - provides Laravel-specific features like Go to Definition for @include/@extends directives, route navigation, config lookups, etc.
2. 120+ built-in snippets for Blade, Laravel PHP, and Livewire 3

I'm happy to contribute the Laravel LS integration to the existing zed-laravel-blade extension instead if that's preferred.

That would avoid duplication of the grammar/highlighting parts.

Should I:

• Open a PR on bajrangCoder/zed-laravel-blade to add Laravel LS support?
• Keep this as a separate extension focused on the broader "Laravel ecosystem" (LS + snippets)?

Let me know what makes more sense for the Zed extension ecosystem!

Thanks for the reply!

I'd love if you could open a PR against bajrangCoder/zed-laravel-blade for the language server and we can decide how to proceed here depending on how that goes.

As for the snippets, they could in theory also go in that extension, however, we can also publish these as a separete extension, whatever you and/or the upstream maintainer prefer.

At the end, though, happy to go with whatever you'd like (aside from preventing the duplication of language definitions to happen).
